Dr Darsi Ferrer, shown in this video, visits on his own and without any help from the Cuban authorities, communities that live in cardboard boxes and makeshift houses. They are known as concentration camps. They live in deplorable conditions, without clean water, because it is not treated for human consumption. This causes them to contract serious infections, with no end site. Clean water is the most important thing we humans need to survive.

Since this video Dr. Darsi has been arrested for his outspoken criticism of the state of medicine in his country and the treatment of people in communities like this one that live beyond the margin of society.

As our lawmakers get ready to vote on a HealthReform Bill aimed at socializing medicine-a bill theyhave not even taken the time to read, I can't help, but think, that I am loosing my country again.

I don't want the government interfering in my life anymore then it already does. Where is this leading us is obvious with anyone with half a brain. I've been there as have millions of survivors of communist regimes. Socializing medicine is only the beginning.

There are provisions in the Health Reform Bill thereare disturbing to say the least. I encourage everyone to read the bill and don't take your government's word for it. The rumors that you hear are true, and when a representative says, Oh that's not true! Well....How would they know? They never even read the damn thing! Their mistake was assuming that we not read it either-think again! We are on to you!

I found this information on the Natural News website. It is a list of the different pages in the Health Reform Bill, with a loose translation of what it means to the American people in simple language. God help us

From CMS at FreeRepublic.com:

• Page 16: States that if you have insurance at the time of the bill becoming law and change, you will be required to take a similar plan. If that is not available, you will be required to take the government option!

• Page 22: Mandates audits of all employers that self-insure!

• Page 29: Admission: your health care will be rationed!

• Page 30: A government committee will decide what treatments and benefits you get (and, unlike an insurer, there will be no appeals process)

• Page 42: The "Health Choices Commissioner" will decide health benefits for you. You will have no choice. None.

• Page 50: All non-US citizens, illegal or not, will be provided with free healthcare services.

• Page 58: Every person will be issued a National ID Healthcard.

• Page 59: The federal government will have direct, real-time access to all individual bank accounts for electronic funds transfer.
